It either has to be taxed or Sorn'd. If you do not have insurance then it should not be on the road Stu |

I believe a car must have insurance if it is taxed. Conversly, if it is not insured, it must be SORN'd. https://www.gov.uk/sorn-statutory-off-road-notification second bullet refers. Last edited by MSS; 14th September 2018 at 19:48.. |

It only needs insurance if it is on the road, but you cannot tax it without both insurance and an MOT (if needed). If any of these are absent, it is illegal for it to be used or parked on the public road. You can legally drive to and from a pre-booked MOT, without tax or MOT, providing it is insured. In needs neither tax, insurance nor an MOT if it is sorned, but cannot be then used on the public road or parked on the public road..
